This extracts a function for computing show_invites and
show_add_streams, for better readability and testability.
This commit was substantially cleaned up by tabbott.
Zulip has had a small use of WebSockets (specifically, for the code
path of sending messages, via the webapp only) since ~2013. We
originally added this use of WebSockets in the hope that the latency
benefits of doing so would allow us to avoid implementing a markdown
local echo; they were not. Further, HTTP/2 may have eliminated the
latency difference we hoped to exploit by using WebSockets in any
case.
While we’d originally imagined using WebSockets for other endpoints,
there was never a good justification for moving more components to the
WebSockets system.
This WebSockets code path had a lot of downsides/complexity,
including:
* The messy hack involving constructing an emulated request object to
hook into doing Django requests.
* The `message_senders` queue processor system, which increases RAM
needs and must be provisioned independently from the rest of the
server).
* A duplicate check_send_receive_time Nagios test specific to
WebSockets.
* The requirement for users to have their firewalls/NATs allow
WebSocket connections, and a setting to disable them for networks
where WebSockets don’t work.
* Dependencies on the SockJS family of libraries, which has at times
been poorly maintained, and periodically throws random JavaScript
exceptions in our production environments without a deep enough
traceback to effectively investigate.
* A total of about 1600 lines of our code related to the feature.
* Increased load on the Tornado system, especially around a Zulip
server restart, and especially for large installations like
zulipchat.com, resulting in extra delay before messages can be sent
again.
As detailed in
https://github.com/zulip/zulip/pull/12862#issuecomment-536152397, it
appears that removing WebSockets moderately increases the time it
takes for the `send_message` API query to return from the server, but
does not significantly change the time between when a message is sent
and when it is received by clients. We don’t understand the reason
for that change (suggesting the possibility of a measurement error),
and even if it is a real change, we consider that potential small
latency regression to be acceptable.
If we later want WebSockets, we’ll likely want to just use Django
Channels.

This experimental setting disables sending private messages in Zulip
in a crude way (i.e. users get an error when they try to send one).
It makes no effort to adjust the UI to avoid advertising the idea of
sending private messages.
Fixes#6617.
We should take adventage of the recipient field being denormalized into
the Stream model. We don't need to make queries to figure out a stream's
recipient id, so we take advantage of that to eliminate some of
those redundant queries and simplify StreamRecipientMap.
For cross realm bots, explicitly set bot_owner_id
to None. This makes it clear that the cross realm
bots have no owner, whereas before it could be
misdiagnosed as the server forgetting to set the
field.
Previously, get_recent_private_messages could take 100ms-1s to run,
contributing a substantial portion of the total runtime of `/`.
We fix this by taking advantage of the recent denormalization of
personal_recipient into the UserProfile model, allowing us to avoid
the complex join with Recipient that was previously required.
The change that requires additional commentary is the change to the
main, big SQL query:
1. We eliminate UserMessage table from the query, because the condition
m.recipient_id=%(my_recipient_id)d
implies m is a personal message to the user being processed - so joining
with usermessage to check for user_profile_id and flags&2048 (which
checks the message is private) is redundant.
2. We only need to join the Message table with UserProfile
(on sender_id) and get the sender's personal_recipient_id from their
UserProfile row.
Fixes#13437.
This change makes it possible for users to control the notification
settings for wildcard mentions as a separate control from PMs and
direct @-mentions.
Fixes#1727.
With the server down, apply migrations 0245 and 0246. 0246 will remove
the pub_date column, so it's essential that the previous migrations
ran correctly to copy data before running this.
Apparently, our change in b8a1050fc4 to
stop caching responses on API endpoints accidentally ended up
affecting uploaded files as well.
Fix this by explicitly setting a Cache-Control header in our Sendfile
responses, as well as changing our outer API caching code to only set
the never cache headers if the view function didn't explicitly specify
them itself.
This is not directly related to #13088, as that is a similar issue
with the S3 backend.
Thanks to Gert Burger for the report.
In a gigantic realm where we send several MB of `page_params`, it’s
slightly better to have the rest of the `<body>` available to the
browser earlier, so it can show the “Loading…” spinner and start
fetching subresources.

This commit adds a new setting to the user's notification settings that
will change the behaviour of the unread count in the title bar and
desktop application.
When enabled, the title bar will show the count of unread private messages
and mentions. When disabled, the title bar will act as before, showing
the total number of unread messages.
Fixes#1736.
Add new custom profile field type, External account.
External account field links user's social media
profile with account. e.g. GitHub, Twitter, etc.
Fixes part of #12302
Namely, here we add the "plan_includes_wide_organization_logo" and
"upgrade_text_for_wide_organization_logo" to the page_params (which
is set in zerver/lib/events.py).
"plan_includes_wide_organization_logo" is True if the plan is not of
the Realm.LIMITED type. We need to add this extra boolean parameter
instead of just using "realm_plan_type" to make things a lot easier
to work with on the frontend side, especially considering that
handlebars won't allow checking for equality in its {{#if}} blocks.
Rename notification property `enable_stream_sounds` to
`enable_stream_audible_notifications` to match with other
notification property patterns.
Fixes part of #12304
This adds a setting to control Zulip's default behavior of sorting to
bottom and graying out inactive streams. The previous logic is still
the default "automatic", but this gives users more control. See the
models.py comment for details.
Fixes#11524.
This commit replaces the `create_stream_by_admins_only` setting with a
new `create_stream_policy` setting, which mirroring the structure of
the existing `invite_to_stream_policy`.
This is important preparation for migrating the waiting period feature
to be its own independent setting.
Fixes#12236.
Fixes#12251.
Previously when disabling name changes in server settings, instead
of realm settings, the name edit button did not get disabled.
Changing name resulted in a message stating `no changes made`.
Fixes#12132.
Realm setting to disable avatar changes is already present.
The `AVATAR_CHANGES_DISABLED` setting now follows the same
2-setting model as `NAME_CHANGES_DISABLED`.
This is useful when syncing avatars from an integrated LDAP/active
directory.
The upload avatar and delete avatar buttons are hidden if avatar
changes are disabled and the user is a non-admin.
If the user has a gravatar set, then the user will not be able to
upload an image as their avatar if avatar changes are disabled.
Part of #12132.
This commit creates a new organization setting that determines whether
a user can invite other users to streams. Previously this was linked
to the waiting period threshold, but this was both not documented and
overly limiting.
With significant tweaks by tabbott to change the database model to not
involve two threshhold fields, edit the tests, etc.
This requires follow-up work to make the create stream policy setting
work how this code implies it should.
Fixes#12042.
This adds experimental support in /register for sending key
statistical data on the last 1000 private messages that the user is a
participant in. Because it's experimental, we require developers to
request it explicitly in production (we don't use these data yet in
the webapp, and it likely carries some perf cost).
We expect this to be extremely helpful in initializing the mobile app
user experience for showing recent private message conversations.
See the code comments, but this has been heavily optimized to be very
efficient and do all the filtering work at the database layer so that
we minimize network transit with the database.
Fixes#11944.
Previously, we had some expensive-to-calculate keys in
zulip_default_context, especially around enabled authentication
backends, which in total were a significant contributor to the
performance of various logged-out pages. Now, these keys are only
computed for the login/registration pages where they are needed.
This is a moderate performance optimization for the loading time of
many logged-out pages.
Closes#11929.
The night logo synchronization on the settings page was perfect, but
the actual display logic had a few problems:
* We were including the realm_logo in context_processors, even though
it is only used in home.py.
* We used different variable names for the templating in navbar.html
than anywhere else the codebase.
* The behavior that the night logo would default to the day logo if
only one was uploaded was not correctly implemented for the navbar
position, either in the synchronization for updates code or the
logic in the navbar.html templates.
Add all the stop words to page_params, reading from the
`zulip_english.stop` database, with caching to avoid loading the file
on every page load.
Part of #10592.
This adds a setting under "Notification" section of
"Organization settings" tab, which enables Organization administrator to
control whether the missed message emails include the message content or
not.
Fixes: #11123.
You can now pass in an info field with a value
like "out to lunch" to the /users/me/status,
and the server will include that in its outbound
events.
The semantics here are that both "away" and
"status_text" have to have defined values in order
to cause changes. You can omit the keys or
pass in None when values don't change.
The way you clear info is to pass the empty
string.
We also change page_params to have a dictionary
called "user_status" instead of a set of user
ids. This requires a few small changes on the
frontend. (We will add "status_text" support in
subsequent commits; the changes here just keep
the "away" feature working correctly.)
This adds a new realm_logo field, which is a horizontal-format logo to
be displayed in the top-left corner of the webapp, and any other
places where we might want a wide-format branding of the organization.
Tweaked significantly by tabbott to rebase, fix styling, etc.
Fixing the styling of this feature's loading indicator caused me to
notice the loading indicator for the realm_icon feature was also ugly,
so I fixed that too.
Fixes#7995.
This form isn't actively used, which is how it ended up broken, but it
basically didn't display its content properly at all.
Convert it to use our standard white-box framework.
This still doesn't look great in various ways, but it's at least not
obviously totally busted now.
Also, add a new notification sound, "ding". It comes from
https://freesound.org, where the original Zulip notification sound comes
from as well. In the future, new sounds can be added by adding audio
files to the `static/audio/notification_sounds` directory.
Tweaked significantly by tabbott:
* Avoided removing static/audio/zulip.ogg, because that file is
checked for by old versions of the desktop app.
* Added a views check for the sound being valid + tests.
* Added additional tests.
* Restructured the test_events test to be cleaner.
* Removed check_bool_or_string.
* Increased max length of notification_sound.
* Provide available_notification_sounds in events data set if global
notifications settings are requested.

If `TEXT_EMOJISET` is currently selected emojiset then fallback to

will appear empty initially.
Fixes#10124.
Users in the waiting period category cannot subscribe other users to
a stream. When a user tries to mention another unsubscribed user, a
warning message appears with a subscribe button on it to subscribe
the other user.
This commit removes the subscribe button and changes the warning text
for users in the waiting period category.
This ensures that the format of this data structures matches that for
in-realm bots in the main users data structure (including avatars,
etc.).

This setting isn't intended to exist long term, but instead to make it
possible to merge our search pills code before we're ready to cut over
production environments to use it.
This commit moves all files previously under the 'app' bundle in
the Django pipeline to being compiled by webpack under the 'app'
entry point. In the process, it moves assets under the app entry
to a file called app.js that consumes all relevant css and js files.
This commit also edits the webpack config to be able to expose certain
variables for third party libraries that are currently required by
some modules. This is bad coding form and should be refactored to
requiring whatever dependencies a module may have; we're just
deferring that to the future to simplify the series of transitions we
need to do here. The variable exposure is done using expose-loader in
webpack.
The app/index.html template is edited to override the newly introduced
'commonjs' block in the base template. This is done as a temporary
measure so as not to disrupt other pages on the app during the transition.
It also fixes the value of the 'this' context that was being inferred
as window by third party libraries. This is done using imports-loader
in the webpack config. This is also messy and probably isn't how we
want things to work long term.
The only changes visible at the AST level, checked using
https://github.com/asottile/astpretty, are
zerver/lib/test_fixtures.py:

'\\[[X| ]\\] (\\d+_.+)\n' ↦ '\\[[X| ]\\] (\\d+_.+)\\n'
which is fine because re treats '\\x1b' and '\\n' the same way as
'\x1b' and '\n'.

We now have a simple algorithm: First, look at the URL path
(e.g. /de/, which is intended to be an override). Second, look at the
language the user has specified in their settings.
This should make it easier for us to iterate on a less-dense Zulip.
We create two classes on body, less_dense_mode and more_dense_mode, so
that it's easy as we refactor to separate the two concepts from things
like colors that are independent.
This is primarily useful for the mobile app, but could also be used to
control whether we display push-notifications related settings to
users in the web UI.
We only use this data in a rarely-used settings screen, and it can be
large after years of posting screenshots.
So optimize the performance of / by just loading these data when we
actually visit the page.
This saves about 300ms of runtime for loading the home view for my
user account on chat.zulip.org.
This eliminates the need to call user_ids_to_users inside the
get_service_dicts_for_bots code path, saving a database query.
This completes my refactor to fix backend performance issues in this
code path. Previously, our messy layering of queries that resulted in
Zulip doing work even if none of the bots actually had Services or
config_data.
This commit changes the tests based on the fact that pygments.css
will no longer be found in the template during testing. pygemnts.css
is being compiled by webpack under app-styles and so we look for the
stubentry for app-styles instead.
Tweaked by tabbott to do a cleaner test.
The handlebars error message is just for the manual development
environment; this prevents the state of compiling handlebars templates
from run-dev.py from potentially causing the unit tests to fail.
Add realm setting to set time limit for message deleitng.

- add bot_config.get_bot_configs() for reading config data for bots

This bot was basically a duplicate of NOTIFICATION_BOT for some
specific corner cases, and didn't add much value. It's better to just
eliminate it, which also removes some ugly corner cases around what
happens if the user account doesn't exist.
This number is way too high, because of a recent regression. Adding a
test here lets us prevent similar regressions in the future and
provides an easy way to be sure if we've fixed the issue.
Add `translate_emoticons` to `prop_types` and `expected_keys`.
Furthermore, create a emoji-translating Markdown inline pattern.
Also use a JavaScript version of `translate_emoticons` and then use
this function during Markdown previews and as a preprocessor. This
is only needed for previews, because usually emoticon translation
happens on the backend after sending.
Add tests for emoticon translation, a settings UI, and a /help/ page
as well.
Tweaked by tabbott to fix various test failurse as well as how this
handles whitespace, requiring emoticons to not have adjacent
characters.
Fixes#1768.
Users having only account in one realm will not be distracted by realm
name in subject lines of every email. Users who have multiple

Fixes#5489.
We'll replace this primarily with per-realm quotas (plus the simple
per-file limit of settings.MAX_FILE_UPLOAD_SIZE, 25 MiB by default).
We do want per-user quotas too, but they'll need some more management
apparatus around them so an admin has a practical way to set them
differently for different users. And the error handling in this
existing code is rather confused. Just clear this feature out
entirely for now; then we'll build the per-realm version more cleanly,
and then we can later add back per-realm quotas modelled after that.
The migration to actually remove the field is in a subsequent commit.
Based in part on work by Vishnu Ks (hackerkid).
In this commit we also fix a test which would fail as a result of
doing this cleanup since the test wasn't designed to take into
account the space chars which might occur in the beginning of a
html line.
This is the first step for allowing users
to edit a bot's service entries, name the
outgoing webhook configuration entries. The
chosen data structures allow for a future
with multiple services per bot; right now,
only one service per bot is supported.
This commit adds a setting to limit creation of generic bots
to admins for realms that want that restriction. (Generic
bots, apart from being considered spammy on some realms,
have less locked down permissions than webhook bots).
Fixes#7066.
We no longer have a special UI setting and model
field ("emoji_alt_code") for saying users want text-only
emojis. We now instead make "text" be a fifth choice
for "emojiset".

Previously, we weren't doing a proper left join in
user_groups_in_realm_serialized, resulting in empty user groups being
excluded from the query. We want to leave decisions about excluding
empty user groups to the UI layer, so we include these here.
This fixes a regression in ae5ba7f4fd,
where Zulip would 500 if the newly added system bots didn't exist on
the server.
This also fixes a moderate size performance problem where we'd fetch 5
users from memcached or the database in a loop.
These are new:
new-user-bot
emailgateway
Our cross-realm bots are hard coded to have email addresses
in the `zulip.com` domain, and they're not part of ordinary
realms.
These have always been cross-realm, but new enforcement in the
frontend code of all messages having been sent by a known user means
that it's important to add these properly.
Almost all callers to do_create_user were trying to
create active users, except for one test. The
active=False codepath was kind of broken (things
like sending welcome messages had sort of undefined
behavior there), so instead of trying to maintain it,
we just update the one test (`test_people`) to flip the
`is_active` flag manually.
Fixes#7197
Having send_stream_message() avoids the need to supply
Recipient.STREAM as a parameter, and it also uses the more
modern name of `topic_name` for topics. Under the hood, it
avoids some annoying steps for re-formatting the recipients,
since we just have a single stream name.
Every time we updated a UserProfile object, we were calling
delete_display_recipient_cache(), which churns the cache and
does an extra database hop to find subscriptions. This was
due to saying `updated_fields` instead of `update_fields`.
This made us prone to cache churn for fields like UserProfile.pointer
that are fairly volatile.
Now we use the helper function changed(). To prevent the
opposite problem, we use all the fields that could invalidate
the cache.
This test had a little bug, where we weren't actually
verifying `realm_bots` before, because we weren't using
`field` to look it up.
This commit fixes that bug and adds additional checks,
particularly for the recently added `realm_non_active_users'.
We now add `realm_non_active_users` to the result of
`do_events_register` (and thus `page_params`). It has
the same structure as `realm_users`, but it's for
non-active users. Clients need data on non-active users
when they process old messages that were sent by those
users when they were active. Clients can currently get
most of the data they need in the message events, but it
makes for ugly client code.
Fixes#4322
If an organization doesn't have the EmailAuthBackend (which allows
password auth) enabled, then our password reset form doesn't do
anything, so we should hide it in the UI.
This commit prepares us to introduce a StreamLite class. For
these tests, we don't care about the actual contents of the
Stream, just the right stream is there.
The original "quality score" was invented purely for populating
our password-strength progress bar, and isn't expressed in terms
that are particularly meaningful. For configuration and the core
accept/reject logic, it's better to use units that are readily
understood. Switch to those.
I considered using "bits of entropy", defined loosely as the log
of this number, but both the zxcvbn paper and the linked CACM
article (which I recommend!) are written in terms of the number
of guesses. And reading (most of) those two papers made me
less happy about referring to "entropy" in our terminology.
I already knew that notion was a little fuzzy if looked at
too closely, and I gained a better appreciation of how it's
contributed to confusion in discussing password policies and
to adoption of perverse policies that favor "Password1!" over
"derived unusual ravioli raft". So, "guesses" it is.
And although the log is handy for some analysis purposes
(certainly for a graph like those in the zxcvbn paper), it adds
a layer of abstraction, and I think makes it harder to think
clearly about attacks, especially in the online setting. So
just use the actual number, and if someone wants to set a
gigantic value, they will have the pleasure of seeing just
how many digits are involved.
(Thanks to @YJDave for a prototype that the code changes in this
commit are based on.)
Previously, the bot domain was calculated correctly in most
circumstances, but if you were using the root domain, it would be
e.g. ".chat.zulip.org", not "chat.zulip.org". We fix this, with
perhaps more use of setting REALMS_HAVE_SUBDOMAINS than would be ideal
if we weren't about to set that True unconditionally.
In this we basically seed a single message for the user which will
be soft deactivated by sending a stream message / group PM to
ensure that is has at least one UserMessage row, since in real
world every human user will always have at least one User Message
row.
We are adding a new list of unread message ids grouped by
conversation to the queue registration result. This will allow
clients to show accurate unread badges without needing to load an
unbound number of historic messages.
Jason started this commit, and then Steve Howell finished it.
We only identify conversations using stream_id/user_id info;
we may need a subsequent version that includes things like
stream names and user emails/names for API clients that don't
have data structures to map ids -> attributes.
This new setting controls whether or not users are allowed to see the
edit history in a Zulip organization. It controls access through 2
key mechanisms:
* For long-ago edited messages, get_messages removes the edit history
content from messages it sends to clients.
* For newly edited messages, clients are responsible for checking the
setting and not saving the edit history data. Since the webapp was
the only client displaying it before this change, this just required
some changes in message_events.js.
Significantly modified by tabbott to fix some logic bugs and add a
test.
This system hasn't been in active use for several years, and had some
problems with it's design. So it makes sense to just remove it to declutter
the codebase.
Fixes#5655.
The change password form http://localhost:9991/#settings/your-account
don't have data-min-length and data-min-quality attributes. The
account_settings.handlebar which has the change password form is
rendered client side. So we have to pass the value of min length
and quality in page params to set the data-min-length and
data-min-quality attributes.
This page describes software the user will get from upstream for
their own devices, independent of what's on the server they're
using. So it should live in a place maintained together with
that other software, rather than be distributed and versioned
with the server.
The use of ZILENCER_ENABLED to tell the difference is rather a hack
but is currently how we do this in the small handful of similar
spots; see #5245.
Fixes#5234.
This fixes most cases where we were assigning a user to
the var email and then calling get_user_profile_by_email with
that var.
(This was fixed mostly with a script.)
This commit adds the backend support for a new style of tutorial which
allows for highlighting of multiple areas of the page with hotspots that
disappear when clicked by the user.
- Add message retention period field to organization settings form.
- Add css for retention period field.
- Add convertor to not negative int or to None.
- Add retention period setting processing to back-end.
- Fix tests.
Modified by tabbott to hide the setting, since it doesn't work yet.
The goal of merging this setting code now is to avoid unnecessary
merge conflicts in the future.
